Operation Save Abortion

Abortion Access Front’s Operation Save Abortion weekend has arrived! What better way to pregame than with a whole new “Feminist Buzzkills Live!” pod drop. Moj and Marie are out getting their summer wedding fix, but don’t worry, Lizz won’t be blabbing solo this week. We called in some serious Roe-or-Die reinforcement to deliver the scoop on all the latest anti-abortion BS from the invasive misogynistic species trying to get all up in your junk. Assisting in our weekly ritual of popping off are FOUR legendary, game changing, ass-kicking, pro-abortion renegades. Drumroll please…Kicking us off to talk the latest repro news is the author of Handbook for a Post-Roe America and operations director of the West Alabama Women’s Center, Robin Marty! She’s also poppin’ off about the (lack of) accessible healthcare options in Alabama, and rave about ELLA, the “souped-up emergency contraception” YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT.PLUS! Think Beyoncé is the best thing the South gave us? Think again. Powerhouse interim executive director of ARC Southeast, Jalessah Jackson, and new executive director of the National Network of Abortion Funds, Oriaku Njoku, are dropping knowledge on us about abortion care in the South and why using a Reproductive Justice framework for your abortion activism is the way you build sustaining power.AND! If that ain’t enough for you, we’ve got comedian, leader of the band Tigers and Monkeys, and co-host of the We Don’t Even Know podcast, Shonali Bhowmik in the house! She’s getting real with us about grief, finding the joy in the chaos, and more!The world is heavy, but we got you!FINAL ROLL CALL: Operation Save Abortion weekend has arrived! Registration closes tonight, Friday 7/15, at 11:59 PM ET. It’s not a march, it’s your training day. Can’t make it? Have no fear! AAF will be posting ALL the toolkits and sessions online so you can get your activism on, anytime, anywhere. HOST: Lizz Winstead @LizzWinsteadSPECIAL GUESTS:Robin Marty @RobinEMarty @West_Alabama_Womens_Center (IG) / @RobinMarty @Alabama_West (TW)Shonali Bhowmik @ShonaliBhowmik (IG) @Shonali_ (TW)Oriaku Njoku @AbortionFundsJalessah Jackson @ARC_SoutheastTHE BULLSHIT:Ohio Introduces Bill That Could Ban IVF by Recognizing ‘Personhood’ From ConceptionAs Louisiana’s Abortion Ban is Reinstated, Doctors Describe ‘Chilling Effect’ on Women’s CareTHE GOOD SHIT:Abortion Services Will Continue in Utah!Michigan Activists Submit Signatures to Put Abortion Rights on the Ballot in NovemberMinnesota’s Abortion Restrictions Declared Unconstitutional by JudgeLouisiana Judge Preserves Abortion Access Arizona Federal District Court Blocks “Personhood” LawOhio Update: A Columbus Man Is Arrested and Charged With RapeGUEST LINKS:Robin Marty’s New Handbook for a Post-Roe America DONATE to West Alabama Women’s Center @West_Alabama_Womens_Center (IG) @Alabama_West (TW)Shonali Bhowmik WebsiteWe Don’t Even Know Podcast @WDEKpodcastARC-Southeast @ARC_Southeast National Network of Abortion Funds @AbortionFundsEPISODE LINKS:Buy Amy Hagstrom Miller’s new book HERE!TICKETS: Lizz Winstead live at The West Theater in Duluth, MN on 9/15Midwest Access Coalition / @midwest_access_coalition (IG) @MidwestAccess (TW)AAF’s Abortion-Themed Rage PlaylistFOLLOW US:Listen to us ~ FBK Podcast Instagram ~ @AbortionFrontTwitter ~ @AbortionFrontTikTok ~ AbortionAFFacebook ~ @AbortionFrontYouTube ~ @AbortionAccessFrontPATREON HERE!
